Re: Regionals
 
Team 1403 is headed out to Boston for the regional up there. We are also going to attend our home competition over here in NJ. Besides, the NJ regional is having its 10th B-Day this year and we wouldn't wanna miss it for the world :p . The Championship event is in our plans and we are going to try to sign up for it when the tiers open up for our tier. Good luck to everyone this upcoming year!


GO 1403!!!

Team 1318 will definitely be attending the PNW regional this year. We are currently working on raising funds for a second regional, it is difficult for us because we don't have a base of steady sponsors, and we have only attended one regional per year for the last two years (since we were created). Both of the last two years, however, we have gotten to the regional with a robot that wasn't quite all it could be.

This year, we are hoping to avoid that problem by designing faster, even if we don't get to put in every cool idea, and also hopefully going to a second regional. The idea is that by the end of our first regional, we will have great drivers and a fine-tuned robot, and will be much more competitive at the second. Have those of you who do attend two or more regionals found this to be the case?

Team 269 is heading back down to the Purdue Boilermaker Regional once again because we had such an awesome time last year. The next weekend, we will be rocking Milwaukee at the brand-spankin'-new Wisconsin Regional :D

As for the Championships, well, its still up in the air. We have approval from all of the mentors and team leaders (except one) to sign up if slots become available. Then again, money always tends to be a big issue...we'll see.

we're headed off definitely to the denver regional. the buckeye regional in cleveland is still iffy though. we might just go and support our "partner" team. and of course, we're always looking for a bid to nationals!

116 should be attending VCU and the Atlanta regionals this year. This is the first year we wont be at Chesepeake (last year was the first we weren't at VCU), and we'll miss you guys up in Annapolis! :( But Atlanta is the same weekend, and it has a VEX regional there as well.

We'll miss you too!
I guess we need to look for another inspiring speaker. ;)

Crt 306 is signed up to go to the pittsburg and phillidaphia(sorry if i mispelled)
regionals, i personally hope we can take the cannon like we did to the ramp riot. We will be attending nationals hopefully because if we win a regional and can go the great and mighty Coach and teacher Mr. Morrison(not sure if i spelled that right either) has agreed to shave his head i we do make it.


By the the way not all geeks aren't physically fit some of us are FIT

Both UPS 1675 and the new Thomas More Community Robotics Club 1714 will be making the journey to Cleveland in week 2 and then defending our home turf at the WI regional in week 4. UPS will hopefully be making an appearance on the pending list for the Championships this week, but TMCRC will need to earn their way there.

Good luck, everyone!

Team 47 is going to Detroit, West MI and the Championship. We are on a wait list for Great Lakes.

We will only be taking a scaled down, very small team to Western Michigan to conserve funds.

No regionals outside of MI this year.

Go to the BAE Regional *shakes fist*

I hate the Boston regional already. They took away the teams I was looking forward to seeing at the BAE regional. And since we are sponsored by BAE Systems, we kinda have to go to their regional.

Last year we went to three, and it was taxing on the mentor's time, as well as the students having to get out of school. The one advantage we had was that champs was on school break, but FIRST picked the non-school break for champs, so now we definitely can't go to as many competitions...

Oh! I like you guys! We saw you at the Buckeye Regional. Oh yeah, you remember that robot with the four tetras the fell over during the Thursday Practice Rounds? *points at self with pride*

Sorry for the triple posting D:

But now for an actual reply

I wanted to go to The Silicon Valley Regional in San Jose CA, but we are going to Nationals. Which is still pretty cool. Oh yeah... the BAE Systems Granite State Regional.

I wish we could go to another regional cause then you interact with the teams better like last year. It was so much fun.

I love FIRST

lol
